MY BELOVED FOOTHILLS ARE ON FIRE!

Here is a picture of the hills above my home. It is so sad to see the hills burn. They are really very beautiful. My home is surrounded on either side by mountains, part of what I love about my little town. It looks like a place you come and visit on your vacation. I get to live here. This evening as I was watering and watching the smoke just over the oak across the street, I am reminded that we are all in God's hands. All we can do is trust Him!

Fire has to be one of the scariest things. I often have dreams that wildfires are coming and I have to decide what to pack and take and what to leave. Which is strange since I don't live where there are wildfires, now or ever! I guess just seeing them on the news makes such a large impression on my psyche. I hope you and your loved ones all stay safe and sound.

About Me

I'm a Christian lady with a family I adore. Living in Southern California, our home is nestled in the mountains. I have been working on an English garden for 14 years! It is still not done! I love to live with vintage things. I redecorate my home every month whether it needs it or not. I have a husband, Kelly and three wonderful grown children, Monique, Vanessa and Kyle which I love so much. Extra special treasures in my life are my three Grandchildren Maya, Noah and Sophia Lola. I can not remember what life was like before them. I love anything vintage especially items with roses and ladies. I have my own website, Pretty Vintage Things, where only special items are sold! I always have something beautiful to look at, so feel free to stop by. I love the Lord with all my heart and give Him thanks for all His blessings!
